The camera sound has nothing to do with the firmware version in this case. It depends on what region you are in if your phone has forced camera sound or not.
I have a W800i from Denmark and I have no camera sound in silent mode - it depends on your region.

Hi Aremaboy, The K750 and W800 are, for the vast majority of purposes, identical phones. What defines the main function of each is only a matter of firmware.
SE don't want you to purchase one phone over another, they want you to stay at the bleeding edge and buy all of them. Even if the differences are only a few tweaks to a plastic injection moulding machine somewhere in china and a few new lines of code.

I wonder why W800 R1CA021 isn't released soon-or is it never? SE tries to make a specific phone,remember? SE has turned K750 camera version to 5.3, which is a must for an 'IMAGING' phone. But W800 is a 'MUSIC' phone,isn't it? SE may think W800 doesn't deserve the camera improvement..and the Walkman is already 80 %bug-free. Or is it because W810 has replaced W800-so SE says: buy it to get more!

I don't think it intirly correct,
In other parts of the world they use the same phone, except they have other version of the firmwire.
I have read onether thread where it's described how you can gain acces to the phone's file system and change almost every piece of software including shutting off the camera sound.

too bad... i think you better resort to third party servers... like davinciteam.com i dunno my phone was kinda like yours first time i tried to do an update via SEUS... and later ive found out that the SEUS version i was using really sux... so i waited for new ones to arrive... but during that period i tried davinciteam.com and it worked.. it updated my phone tho i shed some dough. are you in Manila?
whew! i thought i really f**ked up my fone. turned out it only needed a master reset (reset all) for the update to get through. after i did the master reset & started the update again i thought it will still get stuck at the last bar! but thankfully it went through. tnx 4 all ur suggestions, really helps

What halfster wrote is entirely correct.
There are customized firmwares for several regions of the world, in regards to camerasound being off when in silent mode. This is due to regional laws that some places does not permit to have silent mobile cameras.
Has been so in S//E phones for years. This is nothing new or nothing strange.
Sure when you acces the hidden filesystem directly with the new software you can change that to your liking, but that has nothing to do with how the regional firmware is set initially.
